Azide-Containing Hypervalent Iodine Reagents for Biomolecules Functionalization

The goal of my PhD was the development of a new method for unselective surface labeling, not substrate-specific, that would give access to direct visualization of any surface interactions. In order to achieve this challenging goal, we wanted to develop a g ...

A new approach for identifying positional isomers of glycans cleaved from monoclonal antibodies

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Priyanka Bansal, Vasyl Yatsyna, Natalia Yalovenko

Glycosylation patterns in monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) can vary significantly between different host cell types, and these differences may affect mAbs safety, efficacy, and immunogenicity. Recent studies have demonstrated that glycan isomers with the termi ...

SPServer: split-statistical potentials for the analysis of protein structures and protein-protein interactions

Jaume Bonet Martinez

BackgroundStatistical potentials, also named knowledge-based potentials, are scoring functions derived from empirical data that can be used to evaluate the quality of protein folds and protein-protein interaction (PPI) structures. In previous works we deco ...

Structural and analytical identifications of biomolecules by cold ion spectroscopy of non-covalent complexes

Erik Saparbayev

Non-covalent interactions are ubiquitous in nature. The diversity and functionality of these interactions are employed by nature as a universal tool for building the molecular mechanism of life. Although weak, these interactions play a key role in both for ...

Akt Is S-Palmitoylated: A New Layer of Regulation for Akt

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami

The protein kinase Akt/PKB participates in a great variety of processes, including translation, cell proliferation and survival, as well as malignant transformation and viral infection. In the last few years, novel Akt posttranslational modifications have ...

Analyzing glycans cleaved from a biotherapeutic protein using a combination of ion mobility spectrometry and cryogenic ion spectroscopy

Natalia Yalovenko

The characterization of biomolecules plays a central role in biomedical research. The development of state-of-the-art technologies is needed to make such analyses faster, more sensitive, and more accurate. While mass spectrometry continues to play a centra ...

GRASP55 regulates intra-Golgi localization of glycosylation enzymes to control glycosphingolipid biosynthesis

Giovanni D'Angelo, Charlotte Julie Caroline Gehin, Laura Capolupo, Riccardo Rizzo

The Golgi apparatus, the main glycosylation station of the cell, consists of a stack of discontinuous cisternae. Glycosylation enzymes are usually concentrated in one or two specific cisternae along the cis-trans axis of the organelle. How such compartment ...

Methods for the generation of large combinatorial macrocycle libraries

Sevan Mleh Habeshian

Macrocycles are an attractive class of molecules due to their good binding properties and yet rather small size that allows, in many cases, crossing membranes to reach intracellular targets. In comparison to classical small molecule drugs, macrocycles are ...

Fast end-to-end learning on protein surfaces

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Freyr Sverrisson

Proteins' biological functions are defined by the geometric and chemical structure of their 3D molecular surfaces. Recent works have shown that geometric deep learning can be used on mesh-based representations of proteins to identify potential functional s ...
